TIMBER
As with all natural materials, timber can be aected during various weather
conditions. For the duration of heavy or extended periods of rain, swelling of the
wood panels may occur. Warping of the wood may also occur during excessive
dry spells due to an interior moisture loss. Unfortunately, these processes cannot
be avoided but can be helped. It is suggested that the outdoor building is
sprayed with water during extended periods of warm sunshine and sheltered as
much as possible during rain or snow.
Our buildings are pre treated with a water based treatment**; this only helps to
protect the product during transit and for upto 3 months against mould. To
validate your guarantee and ensure longevity of the product, it is ESSENTIAL the
building is treated with a wood preserver within the rst three months of
assembly and thereafter in accordance with the manufactures recommenda-
tions. Care must be taken to ensure the product is placed on a suitable base.
BUILDING A BASE
When thinking about where the building and base is going to be constructed:
Ensure that there will be access to all sides for maintenance work and annual
treatment.
Whilst all products manufactured are made to the
highest standards of Safety and in the case of childrens
